Magazine Copy Cat Challenge!

There's a magazine copy cat challenge afoot!

It all started at Debbiedoo's blog and if you click on the blog link, you can see what the other copycats are up to.

I love magazines. They're full of so many great ideas and I always find inspiration between the pages whether it's Victoria Magazine or Vogue. So after deciding to participate, I had to find an image I wanted to re-create. There were so many, it was really hard to narrow it down to just one.

The magazine photo I chose to imitate was shot outside. So I thought, I'll do this outside, but then I didn't like the way the pictures turned out.

So I thought... hmmm... maybe I should try this inside.

Here is the original page from the May/June, 2010 issue of Victoria Magazine:

Below is my inside version. I switched the fruit to strawberries and since I didn't have a taller jar with a lid, I used a vase. The only thing I had to buy were the flowers.

Thanks for stopping by and having a peek! And thanks also to Debbie for hosting this event!

Beautiful, just beautiful. You are very good copy cat. I actually like that you used strawberries instead of cherries..great pop of color. Thanks for sharing, and I will be doing this fun challenge again.

Hi! I saw your blog post over at Debbie's magazine copy cat challenge...you did a great job of setting your table like the magazine picture. I love your photos...thanks for sharing them. I am following you now.
